From the projects to owning boxing’s ultimate crown
“I’m very proud to have accomplished that,” 他繼續, “but my main goal was to provide for my family and I always maintained that goal. Most fighters don’t succeed, 但在這一天結束, that’s what pushed me. I don’t really think about being the only Latino to win the world heavyweight title, 但, when I hear people talk about it today, 我想, wow, I’m still the only Latino to do that.”
Several years ago, Ruiz opened a gym (Quietman體育健身) in Medford, 嘛, not too far from where he grew up in Chelsea and trained in Somerville. It has been a registered club member by USA Boxing since 2012, 但, 更重要的是, it’s Ruiz’ way of giving back to amateur boxing.
“I felt there was a need to help more kids and give them an opportunity to get out of the house and do something productive and fun,” Ruiz commented. “They all have a chance to work on self confidence and one could possibly become world champion. I feel obligated to help kids because I remember years ago when I was in the same position. They need guidance. If I didn’t have all the support I did growing up, I wouldn’t have turned out the way I did. I want to help kids understand how to accomplishment their goals.”
